It is not about you Ehsan bhai. But there are many who just find it easy to criticize anything done by Indian.
But seriously, we can have a debate what was better option since Sehwag is not playing..

1. Gangly : out of form .struggling to get back into team. You dont wana send him as opener. He never opened in longer version of game even in first class matches.
2. Laxman : has been big failure as Opener.
3. Yuvraj : Making a comeback in team. Has been big failure as opener.
4. Dhoni and Irfan : not a test class opener material.

Seriously ,It was choice between Dravid and Sachin. Sachin has been going through some rough phase. So, It was commendable that Dravid took ones on himself and went ahead to play as opener and let Sachin play at a place where he is comfortable and get back in form. Also I think ,Dravid has best technique to be an opener.

I agree, the choices are limited.
